Textural VariationsStep 1: Use a foam wedge to apply Glaze or Gesso right onto the stamp, over the Gelatos color, then press the image. Step 2: Mix a liberal amount of Gelatos with Gel Medium or Whipped Spackle. Press your stamp into this mixture and press firmly to create an imprint of the stamp design. Step 3: Use bubble wrap as your stamp! Coat the bubbles with Gelatos and either water, Gesso or Glaze, and press. |
Color MistStep 1: Slice off a bit of Gelatos and blend with water to make a paste. Step 2: Scoop this paste into a Spritzer bottle, add more water and shake to dissolve. Step 3: Use this color spray over stencils, masks and backgrounds. |
Whipped Spackle StampingStep 1: Apply areas of Whipped Spackle to parts of the page. Allow to dry thoroughly. Step 2: For best results wet stamp before stamping into the Whipped Spackle, and allow to dry completely. Step 3: Lightly apply Gelatos Colors to the Whipped Spackle. Spritz water with the spray bottle and allow the color to run and pool into the stamped image. |
Image Transfer with Gel MediumStep 1: Apply Gel Medium on the image side of a toner-based image with a foam brush. Step 2: Place image face down onto surface. Burnish evenly with hard-edged surface. Allow to dry. Step 3: Once dry, spray the back of paper with water until saturated. Step 4: Gently rub the paper pulp off with fingers. Step 5: Apply color to your image. We suggest Stamper’s Big Brush Pens, PITT Artist Pens or Gelatos. |

I think any crafter or artist would find good use for these colorful pigment tubes. Their consistency is similar to lipstick or chapstick, they glide on substrates nicely, and they can be layered with other products (especially the Faber Castell big brush markers). The brightness of the color was a real draw for me. They don't feel particularly greasy once on the page, but I do spray workable fixative over them to insure the color stays put when I start layering other media.

- They are better for bigger artworks or artworks with not much detail as they are a thick stick. For areas that are smaller I will usually apply the pigment with water.
- They are sooo smooth and creamy, really fun to lay down and blend because of this quality.
- They dry fairly quickly, and once they are dry they do not rub off as much as my oil pastels do.
- You can etch into the applied marks nicely.
- Really fun if you are the type who enjoys getting hands-on with your medium.
